Any help for Garland?

I am sending a picture of four different >1 Ounce Rounds.
They all have the same reverse. Coke Issued them In 1975,
76. 77, and 78. 1 cannot find them In the Art Bar Book. Does
any one know if there are more than the 4 Issued?
Editor response . .
The Coca-Cola Co. along with Chattanooga Coin Co. Issued a
large set of Coke Sliver Bars from 1975 thru 1982. In the
complete issue they minted only one Round. It Is in the Art
Bar book listed as UWM-69. It was minted for the New Orleans,
La. bottling Co. I would presume that they demanded a Round
because all of the Mardi Gras units are Round, and there are
lots of Collectors of Mardi Gras Units In New Orleans.
In 1975 the h Ounce Christmas Unit was minted as Gifts to the
Coca-Cola Di s t r lbua t ors . The balance were sold by mall order
for $9.00 each. 1978 was the last Issue minted. The price of
sliver In 1979 made it very unpractible to give as gifts and
the selling price would have placed It out of reach of the
collector. They are not listed In the Art Bar Book because
they are not part of the Art Bar Coke Series.
This could be a big year for Olympic Collectors. There are 3
different Official Seoul, South Korea Coins being minted lor
the upcoming Olympic Games. There are 3 or 4 different Event
Commemorations being struck In Silver (and other metals) tnat
are not coins but Medals. Many different countries are ann°“
c In g there contribution to the coin count. Good luck In try ng
to find them all.

The obverse bears the city's most

who. like many thereafter, armed on
Ohio Riser packet boats, she also
reminds those who pass that midwest¬
ern America is blessed w ith unsur¬
passed fecundity
The reverse of the medal repeats the
theme that abundance flows from
water The dominant scene is a repre
seniational view of modern Cincinnati
as seen from the Ohio Riser A second
tableau depicts Fort Washington, the
most prominent river-front structure in
the community's earls years A curved
line between the two view s represents
the meandering over that has w itncssed
the city's history

Texas Capitol medals
feature spelling error
The first 100 silver medals and first 150
bronze medals struck to commemorate the
100th anniversary of the completion of the
Texas Capitol contain a misspelled word
that some observers say may double or
triple the value of those medals
The mistake on the medals, struck by
SilverTowne of Winchester. Ind . and of¬
fered through Colonial Coins Inc of Hous¬
ton, was apparently overlooked and the
medals containing the mistake sold before
the error was reported
One side of the medal, the Capitol, is a
reproduction of one side of a medal minted
for the Capitol dedication ceremonies in
1888. The other side bears a design of 24
blue cobalt windows that originally adorned
a light well on the fourth floor of the Capi¬
tol
Colonial Coins owner George Vogt said
one side of the coin, with the inscription
PATENTED DEC. 6. 1887. in a banner be¬
low the Capitol, contained the spelling PA-
TENDED instead
Vogt said the mistake was made by a Chi¬
cago engraver who had made the dies for
SilverTowne. A new die was made correct¬
ing the mistake. Vogt said The medals with
the error are probably worth two or three
times what their owners paid for them, he
said
The 2-ounce, 47.5-millimeter silver medal
Is available for S35 plus $2 shipping The 2-
ounce. 47.5mm bronze is available for $10
plus $2 shipping through Colonial Coins Inc.,
909 Travis. Houston. Texas 77002
Each medal comes in a blue velveteen
money bag.
Vogt said there is no set mintage for each
medal, but the minting has been limited to a
one-year period, which started in February
Vogl estimates 2,000 silver and 5,000
bronze medals will be minted He said the
silver medals will be numbered on the edge,
and those who purchase a silver medal will
have their names kept on record in the Tex
as Archives in Austin.
The medals are sanctioned by the Capitol
Centennial Committee, which is planning a
May 7 celebration

Reagan Inaugural Medal Features Innovative Design
President Ronald Reagan s second inau
gural medal has much in common with
a wedding gown it features something
old, something new and something
borrowed
The old and new aspects appear on the
obverse where Reagan and Vice President
George Bush are presented in a dual por
trait The idea of such a portrait is an old
one, when a president and vice president
serve two terms together it is traditional
for the president to appear alone on his
first inaugural medal and to have the vice
president torn him on the second
In implementation however the Rea
gan Bush portrait is totally new unlike
any other in the history <>f inaugural
medals Instead of depicting the president
and vice president in conioined profile
busts like previous medals m the series,
it show's them in contrasting poses
Reagan is in the foreground gazing some¬
what to the right and slightly upward
while Bush is behind him facing entirely
to the right
I wanted this to be different from the
routine said sculptor Mien Kaufman the
medal s designer Why do something
that s already been done, lust !■ r the sake
of tradition' There’s no point in it
In a sense, the medal s reverse does in
elude sonic thing already done - this is ns
"borrowed" aspect At Reagan s sugges
non it carries the likeness ot a Roman
eagle modeled from a sculpture in the
President s private dining room in the
White House
The innovative dual portrait isn’t the
protect s only unusual pairing The medal
is being produced lointly b\ two com
panics Me dal I - Art Com pane ot Pan
bun Connecticut and The Franklin
Mint ot Franklin Center Pennsylvania—
that hase in the recent past been
vigorous competitors even tour years tor
the right to strike official inaugural
medals Mcdjllic An Company is making
antique ftnisp versions of the new Reagan
medal while The Franklin Mint is pro
dueing Proofs
The Franklin Mint has struck two pre
vious inaugural medals one for Richard
Nixon in I**7* and a second for Jimmy
Carter in I'*'*7 Medallit Art has been in
volved with 10 the most recent of which
was Reagan s first inaugural medal That
piece was designed by Edward I Fraugh
ton a Utah sculptor widely known for
artworks depicting the American West
Reagan s second oath taking was the na
lion s sOth presidential inauguration To
commemorate the occasion the Ms inau¬
gural medal carries special lettering on its
edgt hearing the inscription ^Xh AMER
K. AN HUMPIVTIAl INAUGURATION
Fewer than hjlf nt the -W previous inau
guraU have w itnessed the issuance of of
tic ul medals Unofficial medals issued by
private companies and individuals have-
been struck at various times tor inaugura
lions dating all the wav back to 1R01
w lien Thomas letter son thv nations third
president embarked upon the first of his
two terms But as formal official issues
inaugural medals weren t inaugurated so
to speak until a century later — in l'AJl —
when the first such puce was struck to
mark the beginning ot President William
McKinley s second term
Official inaugural medals aren t stnctly
speaking government issues The\ arc
commissioned and sold every four years
b\ the incoming president s inaugural
committee which although quasi
official isn’t a government body But their
link with the president makes them more
prestigious than most other medals in
eluding even regular government issues
Collectors tend to hold them in higher
esteem for instance than presidential
medals issued hv the U b Mint, and thev
bring higher prices in the secondarv
market than almost any other modem
medal
Initially inaugural medals were issued
strictly as presentation pieces— as gifts for
dignitaries and mementos tor inaugural
ommittee members In recent years
however their role has changed dramati
callv Today through public sales that
raise hundreds of thousands of dollars for
9
the committees, they have become one of
the principal methods of financing inau
gural programs
The practice of coupling the president
and vice president on second inaugural
medals dates hack to 1937, when Vice
President John Nance Garner was shown
along with Franklin I > Roosevelt on the
medal marking the start of FDR s second
term In that particular instance Roose¬
velt was shown on the obverse and Gamer
on the reverse The president and vice
president have both appeared together on
the obverse of three subsequent medals
issued for second inaugurals those of
Dwight D Eisenhower in 1957, Nixon in
1973 and now Reagan
"k\e haven't had many second inaugu
uls lately. ' Medallic Art s president,
Donald Schwartz, noted wryly
Kaufman's portrait of Reagan was fash
toned from life The president gave him
a 50 minute sitting at the White House
on November 14, eight days after his
reclection Bush was unavailable for a
similar session, so the artist based the vice
president s portrait on photographs
The session with the president "made
all the difference" in his portrait Kauf
man said It made so much of a difference,
in fact, that upon returning home, the
sculptor set aside his original model and
started a new one from scratch— one that,
in hi> opinion, turned out to be far
superior "
